Construction of Prague Castle began around 900 A.D.

The Charles Bridge as viewed from Mánesûv Bridge.  The Charles spans the Moldau River

and connects Staré Mêsto (Old Town) to Malá Strana (Lesser Town), at the

foot of Prague Castle hill.  The bridge was commissioned in 1357 by Charles IV because

a previous stone bridge, the Judith Bridge, had been destroyed by flood in 1342.

Prague is very old and very beautiful.  Not one of these photos does it justice

The Charles Bridge is both broad and long (approximately 10 m x 516 m) and all sorts

of musicians and artists hang out there
